Transfers Window Legends At Battle XII | Pre-season - Late action is still better than no action at all

we could surely win or get a draw against aussies as we played really well with the english man so will stay same :thumbs

That is one of the hardest things as they have a team that's invincible and giving everybody a royal thrashing. But none can write down Pakistan after the good performance vs England.
 
But this time I think Sri Lanka will bat to 400 above and will bowl very good .:)

What made you leave Sathasivam out for so long? He's the best batsman in SL cricket history and some like Sir Garfield Sobers who's a legend himself says Sathasivam is the best batsman he ever saw.

Some experiments made me leave him but from now on he'll play every match . :D

The batsmen's efforts were backed by by England's long list of pacers and the spinning duo of Hedley Verity and Jim Laker who exploited the conditions and bowled Sri Lanka out cheaply in both innings to set up an innings victory.

Ian Botham played a brilliant role with the bat when he scored a vigilant 95 and then with the ball took 4 wickets to peg back Sri Lanka in the first innings.​
 
Zzzzzzzzzz......... A bore-draw in a game that we would certainly have won had it gone the distance. The points really don't tell the story there.
